C.1895, French, Marti and Cie, 8-day time/strike crystal regulator,

fancy model with Corinthian columns at the corners and dentil molding across the top, in generally good condition. Someone started cleaning the case and has left scratches in the case in various places from the use of too coarse an abrasive (looks like coarse steel wool marks). The front door is installed "inside-out", with index marks and numbers showing. Open escape porcelain dial is very nice with no chips, and the hands and pendulum are original. The beveled glass panel on the rear door has a chip in the lower corner. The rest of the panels appear to be perfect. Lots of potential when cleaned up. Height 14 inches
